Quilts and Blankets Donated

We met on Sat June 14th for a Project Linus work day. Photos were taken of the quilts and blankets we had finished. Sheila came to pick them up. She was pleased to get them. We had 17 knitted blankets, 6 fleece blankets and 17 quilts for a total of 40.

Four jelly roll quilts were started and have since of been finished and are waiting to be quilted. There was lots of laughter and conversation.

Project Linus Update

On Tuesday we redid the library windows. We took out the Project Linus quilts. These are quilts which the group has finished since June,  There are 70 quilts, 5 afghans and 2 hats to turn in.  Several afghans that were made by another library group were turned in in December.

There are also 9 Fairies in the windows now which will go to Project Linus. The other quilts in the windows are from the personal collections of our members.

Project Linus Work Days Scheduled

Work days for Project Linus quilts have been scheduled thru Jun. They are listed to the side. We meet at the library, which is open from  9 am to 5 pm.  You can bring your sewing machine and all supplies.

Library Windows

We spent one Saturday morning decorating the library windows with quilts that will be donated to Project Linus. One window is full of quilts that were designed by kids at the library in October. The quilters then sewed the blocks together and quilted them. The other window has quilts that the quilters made.

 

We will take the quilts out in early January and replace them with other quilts.
